An Interstellar Object Like Oumuamua Just Enters Our Solar System: Scientists Can't Believe Its Size

  • Published on Mar 4, 2026
  • Astronomers have just spotted something really strange moving through our solar system - and it seems to be coming our way. This mysterious object is believed to have come from outside our solar system, making it possibly only the third known interstellar visitor ever discovered.
    It’s currently being called 3I/ATLAS, and it was first seen in data collected between June 25 and June 29 by a system called ATLAS - the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System. This system uses powerful telescopes in Hawaii and South Africa to scan the night sky automatically for any unusual or potentially dangerous space objects.
    After the object was noticed, it was confirmed by experts at NASA's Center for Near-Earth Object Studies and the International Astronomical Union's Minor Planet Center. That means it’s not just a glitch or mistake - this thing is real.
    What makes 3I/ATLAS so fascinating is its strange speed and unknown nature. Scientists still aren’t sure what it actually is - it could be a comet, an asteroid, or maybe even something we’ve never seen before. One well-known astronomer, Avi Loeb from Harvard University - who famously suggested that ‘Oumuamua might have been an alien probe - has weighed in again. This time, he’s suggesting that scientists use the powerful James Webb Space Telescope to study this newly discovered interstellar object in more detail.

    My opinion, this is an asteroid. The problem we face right now is that our solar system is in the process of passing through the ecliptic (center of the gas cloud) of our Milky Way Galaxy, so we should expect to see more interstellar asteroids.

      You really don't know? It's not an alien spacecraft or anything like that! It's a "Long Rock."
      That mysterious unusual force he refers to is the hand of my beloved Almighty Father, Eternal God and only true Creator and Savior.
      Why do I say this?
      Because the Most High, Eternal God and the only true God, Creator and Savior, revealed it to me.
      I have seen it, and it has that form, and it is the same image that I tried to find the closest match to describe my testimony.
      Apparently, there will be great destruction, because in another passage of the dream in which it was revealed to me, I could see great destruction and fire everywhere.
      Four different scenarios were revealed to me on Earth, and I have left a testimony of it on RUclips on December 6, 2022.
      And the Most High is a witness and guarantor that what I say here and leave testimony in words is faithful and true.
      It may also be a sign that something of great magnitude will happen on Earth due to a war or bombs.
      It was not revealed to me in detail because if that long rock hits the Earth I think it would be completely destroyed.
      I don't know.
      I only know that if it weren't for the sake of the elect, no one would be saved, but because of the elect, time will be shortened.
      Always in Jesus Christ my love and my heart, my good Shepherd and my Savior.

    If these objects are actually elongated this much as shown, I wonder how they are formed this way instead of more common rounded shapes.

    • @clot1770
      @clot1770 8 months ago +14

      Lack of enough gravity to collect enough debris to lead to a spheroid shape. Over time, with enough exposure to other debris, it would eventually collect enough to form a sphere. Objects like this just haven't been close enough to anything else to do that.

      @DutchFurnace 8 months ago +6

      I'm coining the phrase "rolling pin"-bodies. Normally smaller stuff gets formed like rolling up a ball of yarn, or making a round ball of dough, making it round by stuff being added, or removed, on all sides rather equally, till gravity becomes big enough to force the roundness. But if something is spinning without its north and south pole changing position ever, it could be like rolling dough under a rolling pin of gravity, making it elongated and turd shaped.

    Turning a chunk of rock into a spacecraft isn't a bad idea. You could use is size or length to generate spin and thus artificial gravity. It's sheer size and composition also protects from interstellar or ionising radiation, along with impacts from meteorites or asteroids.

      One theory I heard about Umamuwa (sp?) is that it is a shard ejected by some kind of explosion like a Supernova or something so it could be the leading edge of a debris ejection. But that is far too prosaic and ordinary an explanation so it was buried in favour of all the nitwit CERTAINTY that it was an Alien space craft. Everyone WANTS it to be ET so it absolutely MUST be ET.

    Building a "spaceship" out of an asteroid makes way more sense than building what human science fiction thinks of as spaceships(like what we get in Star Wars or Star Trek, for example). A miles-thick shell of hardened space rock makes one hell of a shield against what might be thrown at the ship at the high speeds needed to make interstellar travel even remotely feasible(without some kind of 'deus ex machina' shortcut like FTL or wormhole travel, that is). A shield that you don't have to waste time, resources, manpower or money on to fabricate...it just IS.

      I've read that idea before. Hollowing out an asteroid; giving it spin to simulate gravity; creating a living environment; attaching a star drive of some description.
      The only problem is the amount of fuel it will require to push it up to any decent velocity. That's a lot of mass to move.

      @unskilled822 8 months ago +3

      not only that but being able to harness the power of gravity from extreme gravitational pulls such as near a black hole, a star or planet could to be an actual technique for reaching speeds beyond our current propelling systems and even a viable way of changing trajectory mid/flight so that our own systems are only used for minor adjustments or emergency situations also if the asteroid happens to possess the components needed to make some kind of fuel or elements that could possibly be used for our benefit now that would be much more efficient than any thing we could construct with our current ability at way less cost and effort

      Yep, hollowing it out, mining its resources, constructing an inside that's suitable for whatever job is needed. Probably won't even have to use your own planet's resources, chances are there is a surplus of resources left from the hollowed out asteroid. It can be enhanced any way needed. It doesn't stand out. Work on it in space is light. All you need is a nuclear reactor.
      We are literally able to create one soon. All that's needed is the tech from the tic-tacs, which, if real, are probably (Ross Coulthard says even confirmed to be) Lockheed Martin -earth tech. But even without such technology it's feasible. One would just need enough Starship like rockets to get one under control. Like a bull from a horse. Remember: even rocks like that are very light in space and they have no thrust. A bunch of powerfull rockets like starship are likely very capable to bring it under our control. Like 50 orso. 😁

      There is no such thing as a "free ride" in space. If you can match its speed and direction to land on, then you don't need that object anyways, you just go yourself. Second, the fastest rocket we ever made can only go 1/4 of this things speed. We ain't landing anything on it.

      @NorthernChimp 8 months ago +1

      I don't think we need to match the object's speed and direction to reach it, if we can come in front of it. And even if we can, but find the opportunity to save the available energy for scientific tools ans radio-communications rather than propulsion, would you say no?
      As to landing without crashing, I think either the object has sufficient gravity, and we can stay in orbit until we lose excess momentum before landing (but do we still need to?); or it doesn't, and we might rather want to stab it to stay on board.
      But ofc all this is a noob's logical reasoning. Am I missing something?

    • @wally7856
      @wally7856 8 months ago +10

      @NorthernChimp I don't think you comprehend the energy of an object travelling at 150,000 mph. If you put a probe in front of it, when it collides your probe will be atomized into individual atoms reaching millions of degrees temperature. Just a 1 kg (2.2 lb) mass colliding at that speed will release the energy equivalent of 2,680 tons of TNT. That's 5,360,000 pounds of TNT for every kg (or 2.2 lbs) of probe mass. Just 5.6 kg (12.3 lbs) of probe would be the same explosion equivalent of the nuke over Hiroshima.

      Perhaps the most plausible scenario is that 'Oumuamua was ejected from a closely separated binary star system made of two stars closely orbiting each other. Objects orbiting one of the stars in a binary system will be strongly affected by the gravity of the other and so can be more easily ejected from the system than if it had just one star. It didn't come from the "thick disc" like 3i/Atlas.

    This will probably become normal. Intersteller space is probably full of asteroids or comets. Take our Oort cloud. Half the time cloud objects are disturbed into a closer orbit. By the same reasoning, half are disturbed into further orbits and possible escape. Since every star probably has its own Oort cloud, intersteller space is undoubtedly full of these rejects. With good modern scopes, we may start noticing several of these intersteller objects a year, as they pass through our system.

      That mysterious unusual force he refers to is the hand of my beloved Almighty Father, Eternal God and only true Creator and Savior.
      Why do I say this?
      Because the Most High, Eternal God and the only true God, Creator and Savior, revealed it to me.
      I have seen it, and it has that form, and it is the same image that I tried to find the closest match to describe my testimony.
      Apparently, there will be great destruction, because in another passage of the dream in which it was revealed to me, I could see great destruction and fire everywhere.
      Four different scenarios were revealed to me on Earth, and I have left a testimony of it on RUclips on December 6, 2022.
      And the Most High is a witness and guarantor that what I say here and leave testimony in words is faithful and true.
      It may also be a sign that something of great magnitude will happen on Earth due to a war or bombs.
      It was not revealed to me in detail because if that long rock hits the Earth I think it would be completely destroyed.
      I don't know.
      I only know that if it weren't for the sake of the elect, no one would be saved, but because of the elect, time will be shortened.

      I know you want to believe that there's some grand conspiracy or something, but sadly the answer is a lot simpler than that, fortunately the answer is actually really cool! Galaxies are *huge*! like, enormous. the reason you can't see them even though they're so big is because they're really really dark, the photos you see from Hubble of JWST are long-exposures, the telescope collects light over the course of minutes or hours and uses that to build a picture, but if you could see all that light at the same time, you'd be able to see some of the nearby galaxies with just your eyes. Tiny objects like asteroids are hard to photograph because they're really little compared to stuff like Galaxies despite being so much closer. compare looking at the moon in the sky to looking at a dime dropped from an airplane at cruising height, that's about the level of difference we're talking about here.

      Galaxies are a lot bigger and brighter than some random rock in the solar system. You can even see the Andromeda galaxy with ur naked eye

      You fail to recognize that Galaxies are larger than this rock. It's like trying to focus a single grain of sand on the beach, from a boat half a kilometer from shore.

    There is no plan B for Earth if an impact trajectory was ever calculated. So, enjoy your time on planet earth and please, be nice to each other. End all the Wars and seek solace. You never know we might all get along if we knew our days were numbered?

      Wrong. If we knew our days were numbered the planet would turn into a savage dystopian wasteland, with everyone looking out for themselves. There would be no law and order, and no resemblance to a civilized society.

    Oumuamua also managed to leave the solar system, despite passing the sun for a speed boost, on the same heading it arrived on. Thats near impossible for a natural object.

      Show me the math you used to prove this.

      Which to me say maybe this object is link to ounuamua that another intergalactic object as comes back into the solar system 8 years later after ounuamua! Say that this more of coincident! Yes we get a lot of objects from deep space but ones that behaves erratically! Like these two

      @Dooguk *IT'S A FACT!*
      Ounuamua went around our Sun and had no coma and went in the direction it should never had gone as a normal comet.

      @CONNECTELECTRIC if it is a FACT allcaps, there should be a publicly available calculation proving that it is impossible for it to have taken its course by any means other than a form of drive.
      Surely you could just link it?

      Astrum’s video on Ounuamua is pretty good if you want a quick overview. Natural explanations, like it being a hydrogen iceberg that’s 1km long and 1mm thick for influence of trajectory being caused by a solar flare for example, is fun to think about. Chill out, go read some of the referenced papers in that video, I’m going down a wormhole reading on it, enjoy

    Isn't it interesting that 3 of these "objects" have shown up in a relatively short period of time, in our solar system? And all believed to be from outside of our solar system? I mean, what are the odds??? And I agree, they should be pointing JWST right at it, learn as much as they can about it. And waste no time doing it.
    Also, when it arrives near Mars, can it "slingshot" around it to give it a new trajectory, in a different direction instead of straight ahead?

      I notice each one was bigger than the last ..like drone , scout n mothership 😂

    • @Dooguk
      @Dooguk 8 months ago +2

      The reason is we now have telescopes activly looking for just this kind of event. Probably going too fast to slingshot anything in our solar system. It could be diverted though.
